Hebrews 1
1 In times past the word of God came to our fathers through the prophets, in different parts and in different ways;
第一款 キリストは大いに天使等に優り給ふ 神は昔預言者等を以て、幾度にも幾様にも先祖等に語り給ひしに、
2 But now, at the end of these days, it has come to us through his Son, to whom he has given all things for a heritage, and through whom he made the order of the generations; (aiōn g165)
此末の日に至り、曾て萬物の世嗣に立て、又之によりて世を造り給ひたる御子を以て、我等に語り給へり。 (aiōn g165)
3 Who, being the outshining of his glory, the true image of his substance, supporting all things by the word of his power, having given himself as an offering making clean from sins, took his seat at the right hand of God in heaven;
彼は神の光榮の輝、其本體の印章に在して、己が権能の言を以て、萬物を保ち、罪の潔を為し給ひて、天に於て稜威の右に坐し給ふなり。
4 Having become by so much better than the angels, as the name which is his heritage is more noble than theirs.
彼が天使等に優る者と成り給へるは、猶其受け給ひし御名の彼等に優れるが如し。
5 To which of the angels did God say at any time, You are my Son, this day I have given you being? or, I will be his Father, and he will be my Son?
蓋神曾て天使等の敦れに斯は曰ひしぞ、[曰く]、「汝は我子なり、我今日汝を生めり」と、又「我彼に父たり彼我に子たらん」と。
6 And again, when he is sending his only Son into the world, he says, Let all the angels of God give him worship.
又冢子を更に世に入れ給ひし時に曰く、「神の天使皆之を禮拝すべし」、と。
7 And of the angels he says, Who makes his angels winds, and his servants flames of fire:
而して天使等に就きては、「彼風を其使者と為し、焔を其の役者となし給ふ」と言へるに、
8 But of the Son he says, Your seat of power, O God, is for ever and ever; and the rod of your kingdom is a rod of righteousness. (aiōn g165)
御子に就きては、「神よ、汝の玉座は世々に在り、汝の王位の笏は義の笏なり、 (aiōn g165)
9 You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil; and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head more than on the heads of those who are with you.
汝正義を愛し不義を憎めり、故に汝の神たる神は、喜の油を汝が同輩に優りて汝に注ぎ給へり、」と言ふ。
10 You, Lord, at the first did put the earth on its base, and the heavens are the works of your hands:
又曰く、「主よ、汝初に地を据置き給へり、而して諸の天も御手の業なり、
11 They will come to their end; but you are for ever; they will become old as a robe;
是等は亡びん、然れど汝は永存し給ひ、是等は皆衣服の如く古びん。
12 They will be rolled up like a cloth, even like a robe, and they will be changed: but you are the same and your years will have no end.
汝之を上衣の如く畳み給はんに、是等は變るべしと雖も、汝は同じきものにして變る事なく、汝の齢終なかるべし」と。
13 But of which of the angels has he said at any time, Take your seat at my right hand till I put all those who are against you under your feet?
然るに曾て天使等の敦れに向ひてか、「我汝の敵を汝の足台と成らしむるまで我右に坐せよ」、と曰ひし事ある、
14 Are they not all helping spirits, who are sent out as servants to those whose heritage will be salvation?
天使は悉く役者と成る霊にして、救霊の世嗣を受くべき人々の為に役者として遣はさるるに非ずや。
